How about simply: Do these sentences seem natural to a native speaker?

- That feels like/as if it was yesterday. That? I'd say "it". Both "like" and "as if" are acceptable.

to a native speaker (not just a native - we're not in the Amazon here).
Can you tell me is similar to je veux . Je voudrais est mieux, non? Meme chose avec Can you. It is better to say Could you or Would you.
The best of all the sentences are the two that use "seem natural to a native speaker".
Could you tell me if the following seem natural to a native speaker?
Would you please
